”OSA” Our Saviour’s Atonement Lutheran Church was formed by the merger, in 1927, of two congregations: the Evangelical Lutheran Church of the Atonement and the Church of Our Saviour, off-shoots of St. John’s Lutheran Church of Christopher Street that emerged in the 1890s. The cornerstone of the Parish House was laid in 1928. The Parish House was built of fieldstone with a slate roof and boasted a full gymnasium, a bowling alley, a sewing room, a seven-room parsonage and separate apartments for a sexton and a deaconess. The OSA Lutheran Church is now the primary tenant of the building, renamed the Cornerstone Center, and leases space to many community groups.
